    There are dozens and dozens of these wild parakeets in my neighborhood, these were in a palm tree across the street from me.

    Thanks for looking.

    Although a very busy setting, it works better than I would have thought. The diagonal perch looks neat against the curtain of vertical strands. I do find that the bright area in lower left corner pulls my eye quite a bit there, surely toning it down would help with that.

    Thanks Daniel, I didn't even think about that.

    Very cool Tim. They look like they are in their natural jungle habitat as opposed to downtown Longbeach. The red really pops well against the palm fronds.

    I would get some fruit out on a set up and see if you can get them to come over to your place. Very natural image and good suggestion by Daniel. Nice image Tim.
